Our little son will be four years Of age on the

very painful breaking out Of the skin. We call
Ell in physician who treated him for about
four weeks. The child received little or no good
from the treatment, as the breaking out suppos

ed form became larger in bloehes, and more
and more distressing We were frequently obi
ged to get up in the night and rub HIM with
soda in water, strong liniment, etc. Finally we
called other physicians, until no less than SIX

child steaiIy getting worse, until about the goth

Loss in Buying Farm Supplies.

The amount which has been lost to
the South since the war in buying
farm supplies abroad. is beyond COM
prehension. 1t is estimated that we
pay annually to the North and West
100000; $5O,000,0O0 for corn ;
s72,OOO,O00 for wheat and over $780,
900, 900 for hay nearly 5000, 000,0

Another great loss is the destruc

production service but by their con
sumption of food, annually impover.

We know Il man who raises moth
ing but cotton. A few days ago We
saw him come to town and sell four
chickens for one dollar, IS cents of
which he used to purchase bushel of
corn. He took his horse from the
field, and lost his horses work and
his own work for the better part of
one day, At this time of the year the
horses work is worth one dollar per
day, and the mans work certainly not
less than so cents. Add together the
75c. cash, which the corn costs, 81 for
horses loss of time, and soc. for the

follow such course and prosper. A
double crop could not improve the
condition of such man.

YANKToN, Sept. So.-Gov. Church
to-day telegraphed to asylum trustees,
Powers, Van Tassel and Williams, that
he had suspended them He also notl-
fed Mr. Van Tassel that Trustees Brown
and Lewis had rendered their resigna-
tons, and that said designations had
been accepted. This action is based
upon the result of an official investiga-
ton by Attorney General Templeton
and Public Examiner Harris relative to
certain improvements at the asylum
grounds, an account of which was first
published in the GLOBE.r The inquiry
elected the information that the i'm
provementS being made would have to
be paid from the appropriation of S92,-
600, made by the legislature, the
trustees contending that it was not
necessary to secure the COVER
nor's approval. 1t is claimed
that while the governor has power to
suspend the trustees he has not the
power to appoint their successors.
However, as the matter of building the
asylum wings is practically in the
hands of the governor and auditor, it is
expected that Gov. Church will appoint
a new board of trustees and that Auditor
Ward will allow all vouchers drawn by
the new board. With the governor and
auditor at the back and $4,000 in the
treasury, the new deal can soon put an
end to the asylum middle.

FARGO, Sept. 30.-There is growing
and widespread alarm over the effect of
the late decision of the land department
in regard to the Northern Pacific indem-
nifty lands. 1t is understood to affect the
greater part of the strip of ten miles out
side of the forty miles each side of the
road, from the Red to the Missouri
river. In these two ten mile strips are
many of the largest farms and quite
number of towns-La Moure, Buxton,
part of Wahpeton, etc. The railroad
company has sold about all of
these lands for small figures,
and most of them have multiplied
the purchase figures in value many
times. The Grandin and other bonanza
farms are among them.
THE ROAD GOBBLED THEM Up
without much regard to the law, and
they passed, to greater extent
perhaps then any other lands, into the
hands of spectators. They are now
declared in the market and open
for homesteaders and to pre-
empt next month squatterS are locating
all over the best part of them. 1t is
said that in Trail county there is hardly
a quarter on the ten miles along the
Manitoba that some one is not putting
shanty upon, and the men who
bought and cultivated them
are full of alarm and
apprehension. The road can only re-
cOmpense them to the amount Of the
purchase money. which is but small
part of the present value. The towns
in the limit also are becoming alarmed,
as the titles to their lots are involved.
1t is believed that it will become mat
ter of much public concern, and per-
haps require action by congress. 1t is
alleged that the land office is simply ell
forcing the law.

JUDGE PALMER'S BILL.

The judicial bill said to be prepared
by Judge PALMER, to be presented to
congress the coming winter is generally
approved by the press, so far as it goes,
but it does not fully cover the ground;
and as it is expected it will be taken
under the charge of the good-natured
but inefficient old gentleman who draws
the salary of representative in congress,
only those of sublime faith look for any
result from his apparent efforts. Dur
ing the last congress he was furnished
with bill changing some of the dis
trictS, to which there could be no oppo-
sition in congress or elsewhere,
and it sleeps with the many
other Dakota measures that were
entrusted to Delegate CLIFFORD. No
one cares to speak unkindly of the old
fellow, but few will take interest in pre-
pairing measures to pass to desuetude
through his hands. Even under the
PALMER bill one judge will still have
twenty-three counties in his district,
and all will have an amount of work
usually assigned to three or four judges.
Dakota needs at least twenty district or
circuit judges, and a supreme court en-
tirely distinct. But this will not be had
until statehood is attained. The most
practicable method to secure the special
needs of Dakota is to concentrate effort
for admission. This is within reach if
the crankS and kickers will keep out of
the way.

/ have taken the figures and gone over
the matter carefully, and, in round
numbers, the railroads own 81 per cent.
of the property of the territory. And
yet they only pay about 5 per cent. OF
the taxes. This is a good subject for
the farmers and workingmen to think
about. Why should the railroads not
pay tax? Is there any reason? There
is none; and there has lately been start
ed in the territory an agitation of the
question that must and will ultimately
result in the railroads paying their full
quota of taxes. If the territory does not
collect these taxes this year it will next
year. The railroads may resist the col
lection of taxes if they are abetted by
such leaders of opinionnin the territory
as Pierce, Edwards and Caldwell, but
it will only be delaying matters. Event
ually the right must prevail and the
railroads pay their taxes.
AFTER THE INSURANCE COMPANIES.
Auditor Ward is waging a merry war
against the snide insurance companies
of the territory. Each one of them is
required to submit to rigid eXamina-
ton, and if they are not able to comply
with the law the auditor has declared
that their doors must be closed for bust
ness. He does not propose that they
shall continue to do business on ficti-
tious capital. The auditor is going to
shut down this kind of business, He
does not propose to have money taken
out of the pockets of the people for the
payment of foreign insurance without
any protection to the home policy
holders. THE LOOKER-lN.

BISMARCK, Sept. 3O.-Regarding the
decision relating to the Northern Pa
cific indemnity lands Hon. John A. Rea,
register of the Bismarck land Office, in
all interview with the GLOBE CORE

will explain. On Oct. 81 we will be
ready to receive film. and entries: but,
as all of our indemnity lands Qess than
one-half of them being surveys have
been selected by the railroad company,
and the selections unapprOved, the set
tiers application is taken, notice issued
to the railroad company, and a day fixed
for hearing. l have heard that the COM
pany will answer the notice, and appear
at every hearing with objections. The
unsuryeyed land can be squatted upon,
and, when in market, filed upon without
notice to the railroad. There is no con-
trOverSey in the local office over the
lands. The company have not selected.
They are open.
So there is no protection to farmers,
or tOwnsites like Wahpeton and Buxton?
The fifth section of the act of March,
1887, providing for an adjustment of
land grants, may protect innocent pur-
chaSers if they purchase over again at
S1.25 per acre from the government.
Senator SpoOner says this section is
broad enough to let such purchasers out
IF THEY SO SELECT.
ID is the company not entltled,tO any in
demnity land in Dakota under the sec
retary'S decisiOns?"
''Not more than 100000 acres-such
lands as were lost by the Fort Rice,
SisSeton, AbercOmbie and Seward res
ervatiOns."
Your correspondent inferred, from
other running comments by Regis
ter Rea, that the railroad company
could protect town sites by MAX
+ ing the selections. Public sentiment
seems to approve the opening, as there
is much lamentation over unimprOved
railroad lands, and absorption of great
areas by nonresident landlords who
don't improve them. La MOure is not
affected by the decision. A heavy
owner of indemnity lands, pur-
chased from the Northern Pacific,
says he had inquired of the law
department of the road what the COM
pany would do about this business.

EDUCATION IN DAKOTA.

The Good Work Being Accomd
plished Under a Democratic ADJ
ministration---The Members of
the Territorial Board. ~
To the Editor of the Globe.
The Jeffersonian idea of giving to the :
masses a good schooling in the rudi-s
ments of learning. is receiving a fresh
impetus in Dakota. High schools in the
towns and academies and colleges here
and there are not uncommon. Without
school fund, the people support in
their localities by direct taxation some
thousands of common schools. The
work in the latter is now rapidly reduc-
ing to well balanced system. Super
intendentS of counties, officers of town.
ships and the teachers of the schools
are becoming sensible of the fact that
they form parts of general and COM
plete organization, and the result is
more courage, more responsibility and
more vigor. The territorial board of ed
ucation is composed of men who bring
to it experience from widely differing
sources. The president, who is the ter
ritorial superintendent, Eugene A.
Dye, came from New York to
Sphinx county in 1882. He
was three times elected county
superintendent, which Office he resigned
to accept his present position. His eX-
perience has made him thoroughly ac--
Quainted with every possible phase of
county administration. and county
superintendent find in him an officer of
thoroughly practical ideas. Secretary
of the Board George A. Mcfarland came
from Ohio four years ago to take charge
of the schools of Scotland. Bon Homme
county, which solid and progressive
town retained his services until he was
made member of the territorial board.
His ripe scholarship. broad gaugeideas
and unvarying courtesy toward his in
Vulnerable correspondents peculiarly
fit him for the duties of his Office.
The vice president of the board,
Frank A. Wilson, brings to the office
the experience of business man and
the education of a collegiate. He owns
bonanza farm and an influen-
tial newspaper at Bathgate, Pembina
county, and is recognized as an excep-
tional man by everybody who meets
him. Under the direction of the terri
torial board, corps of institute con-
ductors which cannot be eXcelled in
any of the states is at present engaged
in series of institutes which will affect
the teaching in every prairie school

SIOUX FALLS, Sept. 30.-Auditor
James o. Ward was in Sioux Falls
Thursday, and, while here, was sought
out by GLOBE correspondent for few
points on his famous assessment order
now creating such stir in Dakota. Mr.
Ward expressed it as his opinion thai
the tax would be paid by the railroads.
To give it in his own words. !;
elf the railroads refuse to paw the
taxes On this order and stand suit, it
is sure to result in declaring
the gross earnings law unconstitutional.
That declared unconstitutional the rail-
roads would be assessed at just what
other property is. There are in Dakota
4,200 miles of railroad. Suppose we as
SeSs this at 81, 900 mile-a very low es-
timate-and we will have $4,000, 900
worth of railroad property. At per
cent. this would amount to $780,
Now, in all there are $4,000, 900 worth
of property unused for railroad pur-
poses, but owned by railroad companies
in Dakota. This, at 2 per cent. would
bring in a revenue of 100000. Thus,
allowing the gross earnings law to be
contested and to fall. the railroad would
be compelled to stand taxation of
nearly million dollars. Last year they
paid only 100000, and this year they
will pay s56O,OO0, unless the auditors
order is disobeyed, which do not think
will be-"
THE DISCRIMINATION SHOWN.
Mr.. Ward also mentions another feat
ure of the Republican system of taxa
ton which has been in vogue, and
which should be called to the attention
of the farmers of Dakota. 1t is this.
Last year the farmers paid so per cent.
of all the taxes of the territory, although
they own but so cent. of the taxable,
property. But the railroads have paid
less than 5 per cent. % the taxes, al
though they own over 81 per cent. of the
taxable property. In other words, the
farmers own one-half of the property
and pay four-ftths of the taxes, while
the railroads own little over one-fourth
of the property and pay less than one
twentieth of the taxes. The policy of
the present administration is to do away
with this injustice, and to make all
property, without regard to ownership,
bear its equal and just burden of taxa

Aiding the Elevators.

Special to the Globe.
JAMESTOWN, Dak., Sept. 3O.-Infor-
nation comes from La..Moure that the
Northern Pacific station agents have
been instructed by the superintendent
to decline to furnish cars to be loaded
with wheat ON side tracks by private
parties at all stations where there are
public elevators. 1t is said that a law
was passed two years ago which re
quires railroad companies to comply
with reasonable request for cars from
private parties on all stations and side
tracks. Whether the law is still in
force or whether the road declines to
observe it's provisions is not known.
The railroad commissioners are prob
ably aware of the situation and if the
order to agents is enforced their atten-
ton will no doubt be more forcibly
attracted to the same by the forthcom-
ing complaints. Whether the other
railroads in the territory will refuse to
furnish cars for private individuals is
not known.

AGovERNoR oFrHE PEOPLE.

The Fargo Republican, which has no
political sympathy with Gov. CHURCH.
and has no personal reasons for liking
him, in speaking of the recent visit of
the governor to Fargo, says: HE never
fails to make new friends wherever he
goes, and whatever carping critics may
say, it must be admitted that Gov.
CHURCH is steadily growing in popular
ity." The Republican at Vermillion.
I'm the extreme south, speaks in similar
vein, and. referring to one of PIERcE's
cartoons rejecting on the executive,
says: "PIERcE seems to represent that
faction of Dakota politicians who are al
ways kicking, have been for years,
and probably will be for years to come"
Many other Republican papers could be
quoted in similar way. There is no
question that the character, animus
and source of the attacks upon Gov.
CHURCH have had quite different effect
than his assailants looked for. AS his
administration develops, fair-minded
people, without regard to party, see ev:-
